Costa releases new summer drink that shoppers say ‘tastes like Solero ice cream’

Costa has released a new cold drink product ahead of the summer, and shoppers have agreed that it is "lovely".

The coffee chain announced its new Tropical Mango Bubble Frappé earlier this week, and some who have already tried it have stated that it tastes like "Solero ice cream".

According to Costa, the drink is a "tropical island holiday in a cup", featuring "rich mango, delicate coconut and bursting with juicy pearls".

Also included in Costa's new summer menu are an Iced Velvet Latte range and Peach Hibiscus, Strawberry Mint, and Lemon Ginger iced tea infusions.

The 'bubble' drink is what has caught many shoppers' attention, however, with one taking to Facebook to write: "I think we are most excited for this drink from the new Costa Coffee menu!"

Others were quick to share their own thoughts, with one Facebook user commenting: "Tastes like a Solero ice cream!"

"Literally just said the same thing," another replied.

A third revealed: "I work in costa and can confirm it’s amazing I’ve had like 3 today".

"It's lovely," echoed a fourth.

"I don't normally like this kind of thing but I love the sound of this," a fifth admitted.

A sixth shared: "Going to have to try it".

Others weren't so keen on the idea of the mango 'bubble' drink, though.

One said: "Can't believe they only do mango of this. Would have been nice for a strawberry or orange one."

"Yuk," a second simply commented.
